    He is my new favorite Oriole.  I love the story of his younger brother and his Oriole pajamas and his prediction the day before the draft that the Orioles would take him.   

    Where did you see that?

    Trey Mancini, 2018.  .242/.299/.416, .715 OPS, 95 OPS+, 24 homers, 44 BB, 153 Ks in 636 PAs. Age 26.

    Ryan Mountcastle, 2022. .244/.291/.421, .712 OPS, 100 OPS+.  18 homers, 29 walks 122 Ks in 475 PAs. Age 25.

    I'd certainly rather see if Mountcastle can bounce back rather than, say, try to resign Mancini to a three or four year deal starting at 31. A trade of Mountcastle at this point is probably selling low.  His '22 xwOBA is .347 and other batted ball metrics are positive, good chance he hits better going forward.

     

    Are you forgetting 2017 Mancini? 

    Mountcastle has never put numbers has good has those.

    That must be an interesting story as to why you are an O’s fan.  Do you live in Obidos?

    It was the beginning of the 2016 season and I had nothing to gamble on. I didn't know anything about baseball but put on a bet and watched the game, I think I liked the Orioles jersey,  the stadium and Manny looked like a great player that game and his last name is common here in Portugal even though Portuguese and Spanish are different languages. At the time I was also a Flyers fan (no longer a fan because I realized how trashy Philly fans are) and they shared the same orange so that could also have been a factor.

    I'm not from Óbidos, it's a pretty small town but I'm surprised someone here knows it. Bet you've had some Ginginha de Óbidos there, I like to have one once in a while.

    1) I don't ever give a crap about the Yankees

    2) Over the last four years or so I've paid a lot more attention to Sasha Mölders and Erik Lamela than whomever the Orioles were trotting out there to get the #1 overall draft pick.

    Where did you get Sasha Molders from?

    He has a 3.38 ERA since coming to the Orioles, what do you want?

    He only has 10 starts and has been playing behind a great defense which has helped him a lot to get those numbers.
